Cattleya Hardyana
I imported a division of this one last year (2022) so I was surprised to get a flower already! I'll take it though. Smells great!

Yes, it is nicely sized! I anticipate better shaped flowers as the plant grows and adjusts to its current home.

This and Triumphans may be my two favorite dowiana primaries for good reason - I especially love the large gold zone on the lip of this one! It's different from many other pics online. Thanks for sharing Stephen, it's a stunner.

I agree and I can't wait for my Triumphans to one day be large enough to bloom! I also really like the look of this one and snapped it up as soon as the seller sent a photo of what the blooms look like!

It looks pretty magnificent to me now, even if it's not really a fully acclimated plant.
